Η Χαλιώτη Ελπίδα είναι Ψυχολόγος και παρέχει συνεδρίες μέσω Βιντεοκλήσης. Είναι απόφοιτη του Τμήματος Ψυχολογίας του Παντείου Πανεπιστημίου Κοινωνικών και Πολιτικών Επιστημών, και πραγματοποιεί μεταπτυχιακές σπουδές στη Γνωσιακή-Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία (CBT). Στην ψυχοθεραπευτική της προσέγγιση δίνει έμφαση στη δημιουργία μιας σχέσης ασφάλειας, αποδοχής και εμπιστοσύνης, μέσα στην οποία κάθε άνθρωπος μπορεί να εξερευνήσει τις σκέψεις, τα συναισθήματα και τις δυσκολίες που αντιμετωπίζει χωρίς φόβο κριτικής. Μέσα από τη Γνωσιακή-Συμπεριφορική προσέγγιση, στόχος της είναι να κατανοηθούν τα μοτίβα σκέψης και συμπεριφοράς που μπορεί να συντηρούν τη δυσκολία και, σταδιακά, να αναπτυχθούν πιο λειτουργικοί τρόποι διαχείρισης και αντιμετώπισής της. Παρέχονται υπηρεσίες για την αντιμετώπιση ζητημάτων όπως το άγχος, οι κρίσεις πανικού, η χαμηλή αυτοεκτίμηση, οι δυσκολίες στις σχέσεις, η διαχείριση συναισθημάτων, οι αλλαγές και οι απαιτητικές περίοδοι ζωής. Πιστεύει ότι η ψυχοθεραπεία δεν είναι μια διαδικασία κατά την οποία ο θεραπευτής δίνει έτοιμες απαντήσεις, αλλά ένας χώρος συνεργασίας, όπου ο θεραπευόμενος μπορεί να κατανοήσει καλύτερα τον εαυτό του, να αναγνωρίσει τις ανάγκες του και να αποκτήσει σταδιακά περισσότερη αυτονομία και εμπιστοσύνη στις δικές του δυνατότητες. Κάθε θεραπευτική διαδικασία είναι διαφορετική και προσαρμόζεται στις ανάγκες, τον ρυθμό και τους στόχους του κάθε ανθρώπου.

About the specialist

Η Αθανασιάδου Τραϊάνα είναι Ψυχολόγος με προσέγγιση γνωσιακής Συμπεριφορικής κατεύθυνσης. Εχει εξειδίκευση στην Σεξουαλικη Υγεία, τις ψυχοσεξουαλικες διαταραχές και την ταυτότητα Φύλου. Ακολουθεί μια συνθετική προσέγγιση καθώς πιστεύει πως ο κάθε άνθρωπος είναι ξεχωριστός και για να αναπτυχθεί ο Αληθής εαυτός του χρειάζεται να φωτιστεί η ιδιαιτερότητά του.

Το άγχος, ο φόβος, η θλίψη είναι συναισθήματα που μοιραζόμαστε όλοι, ωστόσο για τον καθένα το κάθε συναίσθημα ξυπνα ένα προσωπικό "αφήγημα" ζωής.

Πιστεύει πως στην καρδιά της θεραπείας βρίσκεται ένας χώρος ζωντανός, ευέλικτος, όπου το αληθινό συναντά το δυνατό. Εκεί, μέσα σε μια σχέση που κρατά αλλά δεν εγκλωβίζει, ο εαυτός δεν χρειάζεται πια να κρύβεται—γεννιέται ξανά, ελεύθερος. 

Πιστεύει πως συχνά κάνεις γίνεται το τραύμα του και η θεραπεία επέρχεται με το να καταφέρει να δει τον εαυτό του ως ένα όλον που έχει και τραύματα ωστόσο μπορεί να τα φροντίσει και κα τα αγκαλιάσει. 

Από τα φοιτητικά ήδη χρόνια υπήρξε ενεργό μέλος σε πολλούς φορείς Ψυχικής Υγείας. Έχει εκπαιδευτεί σε ξενώνες του Ψυχιατρικό Νοσοκομείου Αττικής (Ψ.Ν.Α) με χρονια πάσχοντες ασθενείς. Έπειτα ασχολήθηκε με την Ψυχική Υγεία Γυναικών στο ειδικό Νοσοκομείο Γυναικών της Α' Πανεπιστημιακής -Αιγινήτειο Νοσοκομείο. Εκπαιδεύτηκε στο Ειδικο Ιατρειο Ψυχοσεξουαλικων Διαταραχών στην Α' Πανεπιστημιακή Κλινική ενώ μερι και σήμερα βρίσκεται στην Μονάδα Συμβουλευτικής Φοιτητών του ΕΚΠΑ.

Την περίοδο της covid 19 συμμετείχε ενεργά και στελέχωνε την Γραμμή Ψυχοκοινωνικης Υποστήριξης για την πανδημια ενώ συμμετείχε σε πολλές δράσεις προαγωγής Ψυχικής Υγείας. Σπούδασε στο τμήμα Ψυχολογίας Παντειου και έπειτα Παρακολούθησε πρόγραμμα ΜΠΣ στην Ιατρική Σχολή Αθηνών. Είναι μέλος της Ελληνικής Εταιρίας Γνωσιακής Συμπεριφορικης Θεραπείας.

Έχει μετεκπαιδευτεί στην ψυχοπαθολογία και στην Αναλυτική προσέγγιση Ομαδικής θεραπείας.

Πιστεύει πως η ομάδα μπορεί να αποτελέσει ένα ασφαλές πεδίο γέννησης του εαυτού μέσα από αλληλεπιδράσεις ανθρώπων που εντέλει δημιουργούν ένα όλον αποτελούμενο από πολλά "ολόκληρα" που συνθέτουν έναν χώρο θεραπείας και προαγωγής των σχέσεων με τον εαυτό και τους άλλους.

Η Ελένη Μίχα είναι Ψυχολόγος – Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια, κάτοχος νόμιμης άδειας ασκήσεως επαγγέλματος, και διατηρεί το ιδιωτικό της γραφείο στους Αμπελοκήπους. Είναι κάτοχος μεταπτυχιακού τίτλου στην Κλινική Γνωστική Νευροψυχολογία και εξειδίκευσης στη Γνωσιακή Συμπεριφορική Ψυχοθεραπεία (CBT). Παράλληλα, εκπαιδεύεται στην Ψυχοδυναμική Ψυχοθεραπεία στο ΔΙΚΕ.ΨΥ και έχει παρακολουθήσει μετεκπαιδευτικό πρόγραμμα στο ΕΚΠΑ με αντικείμενο τις Διαταραχές Προσωπικότητας Cluster B.

Για την ίδια, η ψυχοθεραπεία είναι μια βαθιά προσωπική και μετασχηματιστική διαδικασία. Πρεσβεύει πως η θεραπευτική διαδικασία δεν αφορά την αναζήτηση της τελειότητας, αλλά τη δυνατότητα πρωτίστως να γνωρίσουμε, και έπειτα να αποδεχτούμε τον εαυτό μας με τις δυσκολίες, τις αντιφάσεις και τις δυνατότητές του. Κεντρικό στοιχείο της προσέγγισής της είναι η δημιουργία ενός ασφαλούς, σταθερού και αποδεκτικού θεραπευτικού πλαισίου, μέσα στο οποίο κάθε άνθρωπος μπορεί να εκφραστεί ελεύθερα, χωρίς φόβο κριτικής, και να είναι αυθεντικά ο εαυτός του. Με διαφάνεια, αμεσότητα και σεβασμό στη μοναδική ατομικότητα του κάθε ανθρώπου, επιδιώκει να καλλιεργεί μια ουσιαστική θεραπευτική σχέση, προσαρμοσμένη στις ιδιαίτερες ανάγκες, τις εμπειρίες και τον προσωπικό ρυθμό του.

Υιοθετεί μια ολιστική προσέγγιση, αντιμετωπίζοντας τον άνθρωπο ως μια ενιαία ψυχοσωματική ολότητα, στην οποία η ψυχική και η σωματική υγεία αλληλεπιδρούν. Η θεραπευτική σχέση αποτελεί για εκείνη μια σχέση συνεργασίας και εμπιστοσύνης. Δεν βρίσκεται απέναντι από τον άνθρωπο, αλλά δίπλα του, ως συνοδοιπόρος στο προσωπικό του ταξίδι.  

Αναλαμβάνει ατομικές συνεδρίες ψυχοθεραπείας ενηλίκων και εφήβων, καθώς και θεραπεία ζεύγους. Παρέχει επίσης τη δυνατότητα διαδικτυακών συνεδριών. Καθώς τα αγγλικά αποτελούν δεύτερη μητρική της γλώσσα, παρέχει τις υπηρεσίες της και στην αγγλική γλώσσα.

Έχει αποκτήσει κλινική εμπειρία σε κέντρο μνήμης και αποκατάστασης ασθενών με άνοια, σε ινστιτούτο Νευροψυχολογικής Αξιολόγησης, Παρέμβασης και Έρευνας παιδιών και εφήβων, καθώς και στο Γενικό Νοσοκομείο Αθηνών «Ευαγγελισμός», μεταξύ άλλων, συμμετέχοντας στη διεξαγωγή ερευνητικών πρωτοκόλλων.

Παράλληλα, συνεργάζεται με την αεροπορική εταιρεία Bluebird Airways ως εταιρική ψυχολόγος και διδάσκει μαθήματα Ψυχολογίας σε προπτυχιακά προγράμματα σπουδών και σε κέντρα μετακεπαιδευσεων για ειδικούς ψυχικής υγείας. Συμμετέχει ως ομιλήτρια σε σεμινάρια και ενημερωτικές δράσεις εταιρειών και οργανισμών. Επιπλέον, προσφέρει εθελοντικά υπηρεσίες σε γραμμές ψυχολογικής υποστήριξης και συνεργάζεται ως εξωτερική συνεργάτιδα με την ιστοσελίδα Psychologynow, επιμελούμενη άρθρα σχετικά με την ψυχική υγεία. Επενδύει διαρκώς στην επιστημονική της κατάρτιση μέσω επιμορφώσεων, ομιλιών, σεμιναρίων και μετεκπαιδεύσεων, διατηρώντας ισχυρή επιστημονική παρουσία στο χώρο της ψυχικής υγείας.

What it is

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy applied to problems such as depression, anxiety disorders, abuse, relationship and marriage problems, eating disorders and serious mental illness.The therapist emphasizes what is happening in the current life rather than the past and what led to the difficulties.

Approach

Understanding the behaviour and motivations of others and using problem-solving skills to deal with difficult situations. Dealing with fears rather than avoiding them.

It is used for people with suicidal behavior, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance use disorder, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy provides a space to explore and understand how unhelpful patterns from the past may be influencing our current difficulties. Defence mechanisms are explored and how our feelings and behaviours in the present are shaped by our past experiences.

How it could benefit you

It helps people to live a healthier life. There may be things in a person's unconscious that they are not aware of that cause them pain or keep them stuck in the past. Identifying these and understanding them can lead you to move forward.

What it is

Systemic psychotherapy is an approach about how the individual acts as part of a wider group or broader system of relationships: family, partner relationship, work, friendships, and social environment. This approach connects communication and interaction patterns with a problem or a difficulty that the individual may be experiencing.

Approach

Systemic psychotherapy identifies behavioral patterns within a persons’ relationships and in the way someone connects with others. It helps the individual understand themselves more effectively, along with their roles and communication style and supports them in developing more functional ways of thinking and communicating within their system.

How it could benefit you

It helps improve understanding of relationship and family dynamics. It can change dysfunctional communication and behavior patterns within the system, strengthen empathy, support the development of stronger relationships and help with managing conflicts and difficulties.
